I got the same arguments when I built my router table with 0.001"
precision fence and lift systems. "But wood moves!" Yeah, but it won't
move *now* and these dovetails are sensitive to a few thou difference.
Plus, both pieces will move the same later.

Same with the TS, which now also has an 0.001" precision fence (finally
. It's not about being exactly one inch, it's about being exactly the
right size to fit other pieces. Your finger can detect a 0.001"
difference in height at a seam, for example, and if all the parts swell
together, that feelable seam will be feelable forever.

"...if all the parts swell together"

Shouldn't that be an uppercase, bold face, larger font size, bright red,
italicized "if"?
